Mick Foley has added a new blog on WWE.com where he talks about his Hardcore Match with Edge at WrestleMania 22 this past Sunday, attending the 2006 Hall of Fame and more. In regards to his match with Edge, Foley said, “Did it steal the show, as Edge proclaimed the next night on RAW? According to some, it did. Was it the classic ‘Mania match that I was shooting for? I don’t know.” Foley also spoke about Bret Hart’s induction into the Hall of Fame. “It would have been easy for Bret to go negative. He didn’t,” said Foley. “Instead, he delivered a speech that was both funny and touching on a night that I believe will give Bret a healing sense of closure to his legendary career.”
